Knipex 68 01 200 End Cutting Nipper
The Knipex 68 01 200 is an 8 in end cutting nipper built from special tool steel with a plastic-coated handle. It is suited for professionals and DIY users who need to cut wire, nails or rivets flush to a surface. The plier head includes serrated gripping surfaces that add stability when holding work pieces.
Cutting capacity limits
The nipper cuts medium-hard material up to 11/32 in., soft material up to 13/32 in. and hard material up to 9/32 in. Blades are high-carbon steel with a flush cutting edge that simplifies cleaning after use. Harder or thicker stock exceeds the tool's rated capacity and should not be attempted.
Flush-cutting edge specification
The high-carbon steel blades are ground to a flush cutting edge that leaves a clean, flat finish without marring the workpiece. This single feature determines whether the nipper meets the precision requirements of the job.
